GUWAHATI: In what has become a regular happening in the city, bike-borne miscreants snatched away a gold chain from an elderly woman on Sunday morning. The incident was reported at Guwahati's Beltola area.
According to sources, the incident happened when the victim, identified as Lakshmi Devi, was out for a morning walk. Two bike-borne miscreants, with their faces hidden behind helmets, snatched her gold chain.
The victim said, "This morning, after 6 am, I unlocked our gate and was looking for my neighbours with whom I often go for a morning walk. In the opposite direction, I saw two bike-borne boys who were gazing at me but I took it casually. While I was standing in front of my gate looking for my neighbours, the miscreants came towards me and took a left turn. Later when I took a few steps away from the gate, they again returned and snatched my gold chain leaving me stunned."
She reported the incident to the police and an investigation was launched by them.
